I’m Awake!
Quiet morning here inside
I peek out windows open wide.
Autumn trees are losing green,
but snrise paints a golden sheen.
Leaves and branches bounce and shake—
I’m not the only one awake!
Chitter-chatter! squirrels play—
quiet morning becomes noisy day!
I peek out windows open wide.
Autumn trees are losing green,
but snrise paints a golden sheen.
Leaves and branches bounce and shake—
I’m not the only one awake!
Chitter-chatter! squirrels play—
quiet morning becomes noisy day!
